Wanting to serial the contents of portions of a large database, i.e. 500 - 1000 tables definitions. The purpose of the file to allow it to be loaded by someone else, somewhere else. Trying to understand the implications of creating a XML Schema that reflects the rules of the entire database. The XML Schema will be 1000's if not 10000's line long. I would auto create the XML Schema from the database's metadata. But would there be problems with parsers or transformation engines being able to consume it. I have been toying with the idea of breaking up the logical model into several smaller sets, and only allowing the user selection a set of tables that are defined in the set. Or have the minimal about of data in one xml file. and collect the files in a zip file. Each file would then have a small(er) Schema. Is it possible/probable that a large schema would not be able to be processed ?? Bill Riegel Landmark Graphics Phone: 713-839-3388
